I'm upgrading from 8.0 to 8.1 on RedHat 2.6 kernel. I'm hitting the file
max limit of 2 GB file when I pg_dump my database (even if I compress
the dump file as it gets generated using a pipe). pg_dump is the
recommendation stated in the INSTALL doc to upgrade; what would be the
next recommendation to upgrade the database? Can I use the -Fc option
in pg_dump instead of the plain-text (default) ? Thanks in advance.
